Merunisa, ZUKA – No Longer (Spotify)
“A real phenomenon of sincerity and feelings. Listening to this track can easily relive an exciting, happy and meaningful story. Do you want to drown in the harmony of words, R&B rhythms, soulful Neo-Soul melody and expressive presentation of the material? Then you are at the right place.”
“Настоящий феномен искренности и чувств. Слушая этот трек можно легко пережить волнующую, счастливую и наполненную смыслом историю. Желаете утонуть в гармонии слов, ритмах R&B, душевной мелодии Neo-Soul и выразительной подачей материала? Тогда вы по адресу.”

Merunisa has released her eagerly anticipated single 'No Longer' via Intarsia Records on the 8th October, following up on her recent successes with latest single Jet (ft. Diamanda). Influenced by R&B artists, The Weeknd and Drake, and comparable to the vocal stylings of Jhene Aiko and Kehlani, the new record sees Merunisa taking on an ominous vibe, pushing her artistry to new depths.
New single from Merunisa featuring ZUKA. ‘No Longer’ marks her label debut ahead of an EP later this year. Already accumulating thousands of followers on Instagram, and achieving radio support from Reprezent, Tribe Urban Radio and The Noise Terrace, 'No Longer' explores new, cinematic avenues inspired by the 2019 film: ‘Joker’ - the track’s original name. She said:
“I think the best part of this track is how it's constantly moving forward melodically. It's constantly changing and becoming bigger and engaging just like how Joker did in the film. The tension, suspense and harmonies is what really pulled the track together. I haven't heard something like this come from someone in the UK yet.”
